Tyumen Oblast in the Turkvision Song Contest

Tyumen Oblast in the Turkvision Song Contest (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I am nominating the following pages, all because of
WP:ONESOURCE
)

Follow-up to:

Except for the websites turkvision.info, turkvizyon.tv etc. of the organisation Turkvision / Turkvizyon itself, or the various broadcasters of the event (

WP:RS
either. Some examples:

  • Gagauzia: govt website Gagauzia.md is invoked for the claim that an incentive of 10,000 Moldovan leu was given to get people to participate. Which is probably true, but the participant in question, Ludmila Tukan, failed to qualify... I'm not impressed.
  • Germany: aufrechtgehn.de/impressum/ is just a
    WP:PRIMARY
    source.
  • Khakassia: r-19.ru is the official website of the Government of the Republic of Khakassia. It is only invoked to confirm the name of the song of the 2020 Khakassian contestant, who ended in 11th place... I'm not impressed.
  • Northern Cyprus: kibrisgenctv.com is the local broadcaster of Turkvision, so a
    WP:PRIMARY
    source.
  • Poland: eurowizja.org is the website of the Association of Enthusiasts of the Eurovision Song Contest OGAE Polska. This may be a relevant source, it may even be a reliable source, and it is independent of Turkvision. (This is why I hesitated until today, 10 a.m. of 9 June, to include this Poland page in this AfD). But it is invoked only once to support 2 sentences about Polish participation in the 2020 (online) edition of Turkvision, and this is the only time the article Poland in the Turkvision Song Contest invokes any source other than Turkvision.info itself, or other than our great friend Anthony Granger from Eurovoix. What is the result of this whole page? A contestant from Poland tried to participate in the 2016 and 2017 editions (both of which were cancelled), and the only contestant who actually managed to participate in the 2020 edition came in at 18th place. I think this last bit, plus the eurowizja.org ref, can easily be mentioned in Turkvision Song Contest 2020. So the best option in this case may be more of a manual merge than an outright deletion, but there is a large number of stuff in this article that is probably not worth keeping, so I'm still including the page in this AfD.
  • Belarus: qanunpress.com deadlink. This newsoutlet was only established in 2015, the article dates from 12 December 2015, it's a deadlink, and there is no indication of any editorial review or policy other than that the General Director is Vidadi Gozalov. This is the only article in English Wikipedia that ever cites qanunpress.com, it is not mentioned by any other major news media. So I'm gonna count this as an unreliable source, and add Belarus to this AfD (noon 9 June).

From the Russia article, I would include one significant fact into the main article Turkvision Song Contest, namely that the Russian Ministry of Culture banned all Russian regions from competing in the 2015 contest because it was part of the TURKSOY organisation. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:59, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. As pointed out by the nominator, these articles fail on a number of points, including

WP:RS to support the continued hosting of these articles. Sims2aholic8 (talk) 07:43, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

  • Observation (as nom) Several articles that appear to use more than just Anthony Granger of Eurovoix, Turkvision itself or its broadcasters, or questionable/perennial other sources, appear to be those on Azerbaijan. Indeed, sources with an .az domain name or otherwise written in Azerbaijani are sometimes found in other pages, such as the one on Belarus. This could mean that a single editor has been behind the creation of many if not all of these pages. xtools.wmcloud.org/pages shows, however, that one user created only 8 Turkvision-related pages (5 of which have been deleted so far, including one about Azerbaijan which I nomimated; the remaining 4 are all about Azerbaijan). But they also created lots of Eurovision pages, all except 1 have not been deleted so far. So there is no reason to hold bias against this person (who is actually one of the better editors in the field of song contests), and the pages must have been created by multiple people, even if they all rely pretty heavily on the same type of sources. I haven't included the last 4 pages on Azerbaijan for this reason yet, they might pass

  • Comment on the future of Turkvision articles At the moment, I think the main articles
    WP:GNG. Any relevant information from the nominated articles may be manually merged into the articles which do pass general notability. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 12:47, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Comment on Turkvision's history and future in general It seems to me that the reason why Turkvision has not been able to become a successful recurring event had to do with external factors which neither the organisation nor the broadcasters can probably be held responsible for, as they were beyond their control. As our friend Anthony Granger from Eurovoix reported on 7 December 2015: It has been reported by the press in Tatarstan that all regions of Russia that were due to compete in the 3rd Turkvizyon and 1st Bala Turkvizyon Song Contest have withdrawn from the competition. The withdrawal of Russia’s regions from the contest came after the Ministry of Culture banned Altai Republic, Bashkortostan, Khakassia, Tatarstan, Tuva and the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) from remaining as members of
    2016 Turkish coup d'état attempt, or the December 2016 Istanbul bombings. Either way, this combination of political and military instability in Turkey, the wider region and its diplomatic conflicts with countries or regions of countries which would have sent contestants appears to have been behind Turkvision's eventual demise. The only reason why the 2020 edition appears to have been able to go ahead was because it was held online, like so many events during the early Covid-19 pandemic. All subsequent editions have been cancelled again. If this is true, then maybe it wasn't anything the organisers did wrong, but political and military tensions, conflicts and instability beyond their control. Otherwise this might have developed into a successful recurring contest like Eurovision. In that sense it is perhaps a tragedy that it never became as notable and successful, and we're kind of left to clean up the remains of something which never became quite as notable as it could have been. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 12:47, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete all. This is not the Eurovision Song Contest, where the per country articles are justified. The show is important enough to carry annual editions. That's already something! In the list above, especially the per country/region AND year articles are way over the top. As for the regular by country or region articles, these summarizing stats will be sufficent. The by country/region list could be extended with zero medals countries. Elsewhere in the Turkvision Song Contest article, the canceled editions can be added to a list, detailing what had been decided by the time of cancellation. Greater point – also for other nominations and editing – is that folks rush to create totally unnecessary SPINOFFs without making sure that all information readers will look for is in the main article. gidonb (talk) 13:31, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Would you also agree with my point that the Azerbaijan pages are an exception to this rule, and should be kept? Or have I missed something, and should we consider them for nomination as well? Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 14:07, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
All Turkvison by country/region articles deserve to be deleted. gidonb (talk) 04:49, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I also agree that all Turkvision country/region articles should be deleted. I do not see why

Relisting comment: Relisting to consider possibility of redirecting and whether these articles should ALL be considered for deletion or selectively.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:34, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz Why? The result is clear. I recycled the one reference at Russia in the Turkvision Song Contest I wanted to recycle, so I've got nothing else to salvage. Poland in the Turkvision Song Contest is the only other article I (or anyone else) specifically suggested would be worth manually merging to anything else, but nobody has mentioned Poland ever again. Piotrus and The person who loves reading suggested Redirect/Merge, but did not specify anything in particular to be merged. With 5 Delete All versus 2 Redirect/Merge, the latter two not specifying what should be "Merged" exactly (after I implicitly asked Piotrus to specify what should be 'very selective[ly]' merged, receiving no response), there's nothing to consider for a selective merger. If you like, we can keep the Poland article for now, but I will nominate it again in my next round where I will also include the Azerbaijan articles (as demanded by everyone whom I asked).

I became aware of this article from a post that an IP made at BLPN [3] (that they later deleted). This article has a chequered history, having been created by a sockpuppeteer and has seemingly received a lot of promotional editing, which has since been repeatedly cut down.

  • Delete - the Entrepreneur source in the article appears to be a contributor piece, which per WP:RS/P should be treated as self-published, and I have also not found independent and reliable coverage to support notability. The Amazon listing for the self-published book also does not appear to list substantial, independent, reliable, and secondary coverage in its "Praise for Journaling Fame" section. The best coverage seems to be a 2016 news.com.au interview that also announces the upcoming book, without substantial independent or secondary content.

A thorough

WP:BEFORE
was carried out in Greek, revealing the following sources:

  • A transfer announcement by Omonia, coverage not going beyond the routine announcement
  • A similar announcement for Ermis Aradippou
  • An article in Sigmalive about him being considered for transfer to Bayern, purely speculative article with no depth
  • A two sentence article in Phileleftheros about him being involved in the national youth team.
  • A further article on his college football performance merely mentions him by name [14]

I also note the link to an interview in the article, which is now sadly dead. I do not think that this would change the outcome of my assessment though.

As such the article fails

Spam sources, we really need to blacklist some of these. 17 year old Nigerian "internet entrepreneur" who is famous enough to be featured in Bangladesh[15] with his company "Sam Marketer", which according to their own website "Sam Marketer provides top-notch digital marketing services, including Wikipedia article creation"[16] where they also claim to have worked for Real Madrid! No evidence of this can be found, of course. Typical use of "articles" in "newspapers" where you just pay to get a profile online, making it look as if you are really successful. Nothing reliable could be found to establish that they have received any independent attention.

  • Strong keep - see Vanguard (Nigeria) and The Guardian (Nigeria). These are major national newspapers in Nigeria. The subject clearly meets the notability requirements. I don't find the content of the newspaper articles very compelling but that's true of 100,000's of Wikipedia articles on North American topics and their North American references. The writing style of the newspaper articles is a bit florid but if you read the Nigerian press, that's typical. --A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 18:28, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This is clearly a scam page. An entrepreneur who dropped out of university and started a company which is now doing so well hes had multiple articles published about him, by 17 years old?
    Those publications might not be as trustworthy as you think if they're writing about fluff pieces about teenage 'entrepreneurs'. Nswix (talk) 19:41, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, there's no shortage in North America of people who're famous for being famous. As I said, I'm personally not very interested in this person; should this person be notable -- I don't think so. I'd delete about 20% of our articles if it were up to me to decide based on what should be notable. But that's not the basis of our notability requirements. Like it or not, this kid's in the national news.
    I go by what is notable and that will be the closing admin's approach, too.
    Those newspapers are the national newspapers I read while in Nigeria. Their tone is distinctly Nigerian.--A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 19:56, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    These articles are paid for crapvertising, and these newspapers should be blacklisted, as we clearly can´t trust them to post articles based on objective newsworthiness or truthfulness. We shouldn´t tolerate such practices to govern Wikipedia content even if these are the main newspapers of a large country. The claims in the article can not be matched to anything in reality, just like the claims on the company website (Real Madrid???) are completely imaginary. The "article" in the Bengali newspaper just gives more evidence of the intent behind and the reason for these articles, paid for promotion.

Unneeded disambiguation page; can be handled just using hatnotes. {{one other topic}} was added 4 months ago, and no entries have been added to the page since – the only thing that seems like a potential new entry would be the literal bone of a monkey, but Monkey doesn't go into the skeletal structures of monkeys, and I don't know where else on Wikipedia that information would be, so there's no article to link to. A previous entry of "a monkey's bone" was refactored into the lede in 2009, before being removed when the {{one other topic}} template was added.

Seems flimsy argument at best. What I see here is he getting this attention because who is father is and I lost track of how many times people have said notability is not inherited. As far as I am concerned, it is about what he has accomplished, in this case on the basketball court and not the luck of the cosmic drawer on who his father is.

The first source [27] does not contain information about Izat Ali Fateh Khan’s place and date of birth.

With all these badrefs, the article is left with few reliable sources (the Dawn articles being mostly trivial and the two nearly-identical Daily Times articles) with no other significant coverage. The article claims that Izat Ali Fateh Khan has performed on television, radio, and “has appeared in several programs numerous times”, which is not supported by the source listed. Claims of notability (particularly the claim that the subject has been featured on television, presumably national television) lack verifiability, hence failing notability guidelines.

  • Weak keep -- I've seen an article by him in what appeared to be a reputable scholarly journal (published before the rise of the Internet). Benjamin Whorf was basically an independent scholar without much in the way of formal academic credentials. Also, I don't see why believing in Nostratic means that your article should be deleted -- the article of Aharon Dolgopolsky, a rather widely-known scholar, should certainly not be deleted. AnonMoos (talk) 19:51, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Worf was publishing in an era where linguistics was much more defined by informal research, and pointedly he didn't spend decades publishing theories that ran counter to the academic consensus in the lack of evidence (indeed, his theories were influential in part because of the testability of his hypotheses). Keep in mind that there are plenty of high-quality articles about Nostraticists on Wikipedia (see: Sergei Starostin), they're just predominantly academics who continued working on the idea rather than people who were branching off saying all the other Nostratcisists were wrong and putting forward their own alternative to zero fanfare decades after scholarly consensus had moved on. I think this is more akin to someone continuing to work on homeopathy post the water memory paper being discredited. A fair and proper treatment of the Bomhard article would result in it being an orphaned stub, which it's increasingly converging on in the time since this AfD was posted as others work on cleaning the article.

The papers are in NewsBank, but several long articles were written on Happy's Place. There is also some SIGCOV on the first host, Mike L. Fry, mostly because his business career selling cookies led to a fair number of features. There are three long articles with significant info on the show and there is also a specific mention in Broadcasting & Cable magazine in 1998; the article notes that the format inspired a show on WAMI-TV in Miami!

      • For 15 years Happy's Place was an after-school standard in Fort Wayne and the surrounding areas. The locally produced children's show, which aired weekdays on WFFT, Channel 55, boasted an audience of thousands, a two-year wait for tickets and a host - Happy the Hobo - who gave a generation of kids its first glimpse at bulging biceps. But after nearly two decades on the air, Happy the Hobo and his sidekick Froggy... disappeared.

He cites the example of a kids block created by WFFT-TV Fort Wayne, Ind., several years ago. Called Happy's Place, it combined Disney Afternoon cartoons with local segments hosted by a local Bozo-type character. "But in the Nielsen book it was Happy's Place. You never saw Duck Tales, and it was gigantic. They owned kids" and the transition show that followed.

ten year test for enduring significance, or the standards at PERP for when an article about a criminal is actually warranted.
Instead, the article started out as a poorly sourced sports BLP on the basis of his previously having played field hockey at a level that might possibly have passed the sports notability standards of 2006 but certainly doesn't pass the sports notability standards of 2023, and then by 2009 it featured such sparkling prose as "Ingvaldson is also locally known as the only teacher at St.Georges who can rip a phonebook in half(if he was spazzing) and survive an argument with Mr.Jamieson" (unsourced, natch) — the crime issue came along only in 2010, four years after the article was created, and the article most likely would never have even existed at all (or would have been shitcanned by AFD if it had been newly created) on the basis of the crime alone. There's an additional BLP sensitivity here, because he once tangentially happened to briefly share the same employer as a prominent Canadian politician a full decade before the crime, and IP editors have attempted to inflate that minor fact into the explosive implication that the politician shares direct personal culpability in the subject's crime.

There are not many reliable sources that discuss James Koehnline in detail. Even the cited sources barely discuss him at all. I found some passing references and citations to his work, but that is not enough to write a full article on the man.

  • Accessing all three sources aforementioned, I do not see how they meet the
    significant coverage
    criterion nevertheless constitute enough material to write a biography worthy of the subject.
    1. Legend-Tripping Online is a three-sentence mention that does not say more than that he was a collage artist who illustrated for Hakim Bey.
    2. Semiotexte is previously discussed above as being a standard artist bio, potentially self-authored, shown alongside his work in the journal. (Mind, too, that he is part of the Autonomedia collective that publishes Semiotexte.)
    3. The IEEE article is the only article that approaches Koehnline's work in any depth but sparsely and with little biographical detail.
Altogether it would seem impossible to write a detailed article based on this material, especially if these are the best sources available. A redirect to other articles, e.g., to cover as a sentence in Bey's or Autonomedia's articles, also seems untenable as
undue weight. czar 02:01, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment - It's also a bit difficult to separate him from his TV show, which also frustrates searching as there's a lot of false positives along the lines of "So-and-so said something to Arty Nyberg" in Finnish. But still, there's plenty of coverage about him in all kinds of Finnish papers, even if a lot of it is interviews or profiles you'd expect about a "generic famous person". I'll look for more when I have the time from other stuff, but here's something to start with:
  • Large profile in Anna (subscription required; only shows a snippet by default): [33]
  • Profile/interview in Seiska: [34]
  • Profile/interview in ET: [35]
  • A thing in Seura: [36]
  • Profiles/interviews in the [Iltalehti]] tabloid: [37], [38], [39]
  • Some more in the Ilta-Sanomat tabloid: [40], [41], [42], [43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48] (there's more, but that's a representative sample)
Pretty much none of these are great in isolation, but the pure mass and sustained length of coverage gives me pause and I think I'm leaning towards a weak keep at the moment. -Ljleppan (talk) 07:41, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

These are not significant citation counts given that Al-Rodhan has spammed his publications into the lead of a vast number of Wikipedia articles where they remained for more than a decade. For example, his most-cited work, "Definitions of globalization: A comprehensive overview and a proposed definition" is a self-published manuscript that he

A move would definitely be appropriate if this article is not deleted. Though, problems remain as the article largely went unnoticed for 14 years. It also doesn't appear to be the convention to have separate articles for non-distinct communities within a small settlement. Instead, expanding on the Jewish population on Kırklareli, a more-visible article, could be more beneficial until we reach the point a separate entry would allow for more expansion.

  • Trim I agree that the article reads as an essay, with analysis rather than just reporting. For example One event that helped India immensely was when Netscape went public on 9 August 1995. And There is a food security crisis in India because a significant portion of the land has been designated to grow crops for biofuel. Crops like rice and wheat are often harvested in large quantities. However, the amount of crops that are used for biofuel is largely unregulated, with an inadequate amount going to the poor and needy. However, there is also much useful and interesting referenced material. I recommend that, if the article is kept, it be brutally edited to remove every paragraph or sentence that does not have an adequate citation (noting that sometimes the citation for a sentence comes with the sentence before, and that sometimes the justifying citation is to another Wikipedia page, of course.) This will give a much smaller and focussed article. Rick Jelliffe (talk) 01:20, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Current refs are non-independent (interviews and other reports of what he said, versus coverage of him), cover Ayhomes, or are all of the above and PROMO. Nigerian newspapers in particular are well known to flout broadcasting rules on paid advertising. Professor Omenugha describes a similar trend in the print media: “In the newspapers, the so called specialised pages of the property, IT and computer businesses and finance pages are prime examples of commercialised spaces. The point is that no attempt is made to let the audience or readers know that these spaces are paid for and they end up holding them as sacred as they would news”. Some journalists also work as paid consultants to politicians and businesses thus threatening professionalism. AIT’s Amarere says it is demeaning to journalism as “some of the concerned journalists now work for companies through which they obtain jobs. They cover their track by saying they are staff of this or that company and run offices outside the newsroom. In this situation it is difficult to balance profession with commercial interest”. "Awards" issued by media are also considered corrupt. “The awards are not free, they are for money and anything that comes with a prize has implications”, says Olumide Adeyinka-Fusika, a lawyer. “If a newspaper names a bank as the best bank of the year and the bank is later indicted for corruption, that newspaper will not be willing to publish the story because that will be like passing a vote of no confidence on their own judgement”. JoelleJay (talk) 17:39, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    JoelleJay thanks for this! I'm disappointed to say the least since I have cited these newspapers in other AfDs. It remains true that the Nigerian newspaper style tends to the colorful and florid even when reporting the weather. Nevertheless, I think you are probably right about this article and some others now being discussed for deletion: Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Nigeria. --A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 18:42, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I think it's probably worth someone starting an RfC somewhere regarding reliable and non-reliable Nigerian news sources. This comes up in multiple AfDs and it would save everybody time to know what's what. --A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 18:59, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral leaning to delete based on this comment by User:JoelleJay at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Omogboye Saheed Ayodeji. It cites a journalism expert discussing rampant Nigerian journalism corruption.

  • Delete. I sampled 10 of the sources and all of them were non-independent Q&A interviews, non-independent coverage of announcements from her ("Omotoyinbo said...", "according to Omotoyinbo", etc.), clearly promotional non-independent pieces (especially from orgs she is affiliated with, like City People), or NCORP-failing coverage of her business.

    Nigerian papers use a different writing style to the Western style you are probably familiar with. The tone may seem promotional, but it would be way more blatant if it actually was. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 05:13, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
